Cataclysm earthquake mobs "visible" in Stormwind

Unread post by Adam-Savage »

A couple months ago we reported on seemingly random earthquakes happening around Azeroth. These earthquakes, it was reckoned, are part of the long buildup to the Cataclysm world event. There were reports initially on the patch 3.3 PTR that mobs called "[DND] Shaker" were visible in Stormwind and other cities. These Shaker mobs are responsible for causing the earthquakes.

Tis' true. Tanaris was shaking like crazy on the PTR for a while.

I love pre-expansion goodness. If the gnomer/troll invasion thing is happening 3.9, we have quite a few patches to go from 3.3 to get there. It also makes sense that this big of a game change really needs some amazing build-up. I'm not talking about the cow/pally conversation at Elder Rise either.

1 Patch down, 6 patches to go.
I don't really feel like this is so much the "Post-Modern" era as much as its the "Pre-Zombie-Apocalpse" era. I consider myself more of a forward thinking guy and an era that just won't die is just as feasible as a coming era, where the dead come back.

I suspect that Blizzard is using 3.9 as shorthand for "just before 4.0" rather than an actual patch number at this point ... but I could be way wrong on that. ;)

Only for the ones within 30 yards I think.

I wish they wouldn't... :P it just seems so damn far away! >_<

HAH! I knew I wasn't crazy and now I can prove it! Saw the shaking in Org and when I told others about it later I got the old "suuuuuure there was an earthquake...now go drink your tonic and take a nap."
